Title: Improvements in or relating to Machines for Branning, Cleaning and Dusting Plates Coated with Tin, Terne, or other Metal or Alloy.
Inventor: TAYLOR PERCY BRAINE
Filed: 1913-06-18
Granted: 1914-04-09
Abstract: 14,151. Taylor, P. B. June 18. Cleaning.-A branning-machine comprises an enclosed chamber a, Fig. 1, and a dust raising, circulating, or conveying device adapted to disperse into the atmosphere of the chamber particles of bran or other cleaning-material so that the plate to be branned is enveloped in a dusty atmosphere, the dust from which settles upon, and becomes attached to, the surfaces of the plate which thereby become thickly covered. The dust-raising device may take the form of one or more rotary impellers o, or a pneumatic jet apparatus t, Fig. 5, and the jets may be arranged to discharge the dust both above and below the plate u. Sufficient time elapses between the introduction of the plate and its seizure by cleaning and feed rolls e, f, g, h, which are driven at successively increasing speeds from the entrance to the exit side, for the grease to be absorbed by the dust that has settled on the plate. Flaps or pairs of brushes, between which the plate must pass, are arranged at the entrance and exit to prevent the escape of dust into the atmosphere. The plates may be led into or fed through the machine by means of a travelling conveyer, and a timing arrangement may be provided inside or outside the chamber for controlling the conveying of the plate. A cover b is provided to permit inspection of the interior of the chamber. The shoot d is made of wire, and a gap may be left between the upper and lower parts of the shoot to ensure thorough coating of the under surface of the plate. Dusting or polishing rollers may be arranged outside the chamber; or in place of, or in addition to, the cleaning-rolls e ... h, a hopper containing cleaning-material may be provided through which the plate is fed in a vertical direction by faced or covered rolls, the plate afterwards passing into a dusting and polishing apparatus. Hoppers, as indicated in broken lines in Fig. 1, may be arranged to feed the cleaning-rolls e with bran, the hoppers being fed from the rotary impellers. When using the machine for thick or heavily coated plates, a fan blast may be arranged to cool the plate before branning.

Granted: 1914-08-28
Abstract: 17,236. Boyd, A. July 28. [Cognate Application, 28,957/13.] Cranks, variable-throw. - In pedal - crank driving - mechanism for cycles, of the kind wherein the pedal is elongated and connected to the crank-pin by a one-way clutch, an additional spindle or member freely supported by the crank-pin is provided, and this member, connected to the pedal by the one-way clutch, is geared to the crank bracket in such a way that its angular velocity is reduced below that of the crank-pin either continuously throughout the revolution of the crank or only at such time as it is desirable for the pedal to be ankled for effecting the clutch connexion. The gearing may comprise chain or toothed-wheel gearing connecting a spindle rotatably mounted in a hollow crank-pin to a fixed wheel on the crank bracket, or the bracket and spindle may carry equal toothed-wheels, the ratchet-wheel of the clutch being freely mounted upon the fixed pin and arranged to carry planet-wheels in mesh with a sun-wheel on the pin and with internal teeth on a flanged disk carried by the spindle. As shown in Figs. 7 and 8<a>, the pedal d is connected by a dog clutch n<1> with a ratchetwheel c<1> engaged by pawls upon a plate m; this plate has a pin m<1> passing through a slot in the boss of the crank a and engaging the rod l of a strap upon an eccentric k rigidly or adjustably fixed to the bottom bracket. Or the rod l may be connected to a crank-pin on a wheel at the pedal instead of using the plate m. In order to safeguard the pedal from injury should it contact an obstacle when the machine is being wheeled, the pedal is arranged to be disconnectible from the ratchet mechanism. A two-armed lever o, p, Fig. 9, has a boss q with a projection engaging a recess s in a bearing r, a bolt u mounted freely in the boss being forced outwardly to engage one of a set of holes in a pawl-carrying disk c<1> by a spring v when either lever o or p is depressed by the rider's foot. As soon as pressure is removed from the lever it is pressed back by a spring t and raised by the action of the recess s, and the boss q bearing upon a nut at the end of the bolt carries the bolt out of engagement with the disk c<1>. According to Provisional Specification 28,957/13 more than one disengaging arrangement may be fitted to each pedal.

Abstract: 25,681. Owtschinski, M., and Menzies, W. Nov. 10. Generating by internal steam-pipes; generating by direct contact of steam; generators without internal flues or tubes.-Steam circulated through pipe coils inside a fireless generator is previously superheated, and after passing through the coils is returned to the original generator. The fireless generator a is made of thick corrugated iron, and may be covered with asbestos and embedded in earth or sunk in the ground. The superheater consists of a chamber k containing a hollow cylinder n surrounded by baffles o having semicircular recesses in their outer edges. Furnace baffles o' around the chamber are formed with semicircular recesses in their inner edges. Steam is supplied to the superheater through a pipe p terminating in a spraying-nozzle p<2>. The original generator r is a square tank strengthened by cross angleirons r<1>. The steam from the heating-coils b before passing back to the generator r is led through a coil v placed over the grate of the superheater. The external heating of the original generator may be discontinued after a time, the plant then receiving heat from the superheater furnace alone.

Abstract: 2464. Wood, D. T. B., and Wood, B. H. Jan. 30. Revolving files; cards.-Relates to wheel files mounted on an horizontal axis in a stand so that any desired compartment can be brought to a certain position, for example to an aperture in a desk. Each compartment is closed by a circumferelltially sliding shutter, or by two shutters f meeting at the middle of the compartment. Means are provided for automatically closing the shutters when the wheel is rotated to expose a fresh compartment. The means consist of springs h secured on both sides of the wheel, their free ends passing through slots in cross-plates g on the shutters f. Each spring h is brought behind a lug j to retain the shutter open, and a rod k forces the spring away from this lug to allow it to close the shutter when the wheel is rotated. The index cards &c., Fig. 4, are supported at their centre of gravity on a circular wire e. Each card has a vertical slot m extending from a triangular wire-engaging hole l to near the bottom edge of the card, a slit n connecting the bottom of the slot with the edge. Several wheels may be mounted on the same axis.

Abstract: 3910. Byrnes, J. F. Feb. 14. Fares, seat-apparatus for registering; taximeters; flag and setting-spindle mechanism.-In taximeter and like vehicles, the flag and seats are so connected that they are interdependent, the lowering of one resulting in the depression of the other, both the ordinary and extra seats being so connected. The flag may be moved into one of three positions a, b; c corresponding to the occupation of the ordinary seat 3, both ordinary and extra seats 4, and to engagement by time respectively. Connexion between the flag and the seat 3 is provided for by a crank 12, a link 13, a bell. crank lever 16 carried by a shaft 15, a bell-crank 18, 20, and a crank 22 so arranged that, on the movement of the flag from free to the position a, the seat 3 is lowered, and a crank 23 on the shaft 15 moves a link 24 so that an arm mounted on a shaft 7 does not depress the seat 4, the parts being so arranged that the link 24 moves across the centre line. When the flag is moved to the position b, the crank 23 is moved over so that the seat 4 is lowered, the crank 20 meanwhile moving inoperatively. To allow movement to the position c without affecting the seats, the crank 12 is so positioned that, during this movement, the arm 14 remains stationary. In a modification, the door is kept locked, until the flag is lowered, by a bolt attached to the part 14 and the return of the flag is prevented until the door is closed by a second bolt, which is actuated from the door and rises in front of a projection on the first-named bolt while the door is open.
